‘I went on game to pay off the huge debts my ex racked up on sex with hookers’

A magistrate's daughter whose fiancé blew all their cash on prostitutes has become one herself

This slimeball had left me with nothing. When the bailiffs came he broke down and admitted he was addicted to prostitutes and had been all his adult life

26-year-old Jan

The woman quit her £30,000-a-year bank job when her wealthy builder boyfriend promised they would settle down and start a family.

But after discovering he had blown their £50,000 savings, most of his earnings and pawned her diamond-encrusted Tag Heuer watch to feed his addiction, she had to sell her body to make ends meet.

By the time she had registered with a high-class escort agency her fella had left months of mortgage debt on their £400,000 home.

He confessed his dirty secret when bailiffs came knocking on the door.

Last night 26-year-old Jan, whose name we have changed to protect her identity, said: “It was a case of ‘If you can’t beat them, join them’.

“This slimeball had left me with nothing. When the bailiffs came he broke down and admitted he was addicted to prostitutes and had been all his adult life.

“We owed thousands on the mortgage, the savings were gone because I left him to look after all that and he had taken out loans and maxed out the credit cards – all for sex.

“I tried to get a job but the best I could manage was part-time on the minimum wage in a sandwich shop. So I thought ‘Sod it, if there is so much money in sex then I will use my looks to get me back on my feet’.

“My family has money and my father is a magistrate but I was too ashamed to go to them for help.”

Jan had a successful career in banking when she met builder John three years ago.

She said: “I was doing well and was on decent money with the prospect of going up the promotion ladder.

“But when I met John everything changed.

“He was making a fortune and within months we had bought a big place together. Then he told me to quit my job. He said we’d start a family and I didn’t need to work because he was doing well. It was the biggest mistake of my life.”

With John’s work drying up due to the recession, he was raiding their savings and leaving bills unpaid to feed his addiction to hookers.

She said: “When he finally confessed where the money had gone I was physically sick. Not only had the man I loved cheated on me but he had left me destitute.

“He said he had spent hundreds of thousands of pounds on sex with women and broke down.

“I was quite tough and just told him to pack a bag and go.”

Jan said she was not even nervous when she was booked for her first escort job.

She said: “The guy was very handsome and very rich. He paid me £2,000 to spend the night with him.

“I am not overly proud of what I do and certainly wouldn’t tell my family but at least this way I am not a burden on the state.”

Now, six months on, Jan, from Manchester, is earning up to £3,000 a week entertaining rich clients but only plans to continue in the sex industry for another year.

She said: “I’ve almost cleared the debts and then I want to save up a nice nest egg to pay my way through university.

“The house will go on the market and then I want to train to be a teacher.

“The escort game has helped me get out of a hole but I don’t want to be dependent on men for the rest of my life. It was being dependent on a man that got me into this mess.”

Jan said she had not heard from John for three months and a mobile phone number she gave for him was not operational when we dialled it.
